Landmark women’s health care remains law of the land
ACOG and its medical colleagues helped secure a victory for women’s health care in recent votes on the US Senate’s Better Care Reconciliation Act
The morning after Senators Collins, Murkowski, and McCain joined Senate Democrats to end the bill, Dr. Brown wrote the following to ACOG members and the US Congress:
“This was a battle we simply had to win to protect our patients. Thanks to your tireless advocacy, landmark women’s health care protections remain law, and millions of our patients will continue to get the care they need. And our work continues. The ACA is not perfect and needs major reform. ACOG is ready, willing, and able to work with Republicans and Democrats in the US House and Senate to reform the law, through an open and collaborative process. We hope it is clear to everyone in Congress that physicians must be part of the conversation and the solution.”
